Of studious habits he took up journalism and at the time of his death was on the staff of the New Haven Palladium, who speak of him in the highest terms, giving also all that is known of the way and manner of his death as he was sleeping in his berth when the accident occurred, and no doubt he perished in the ill-fated car. He was 24 years of age, and respected and loved by all. His father, MT Coley James, editor and proprietor of the rhomaston Express, is deeply afflicted. We tender him sympathy.
 Later. At this hour Q P. M Tuesday, it is stated that the body of Louis B., James has been identified and is e's route to Salisbury via New Haven.

We understand the interment will be Tn Salisbury but we cannot state what day or hour. It also appears that other parties claim the body but MT James and friends are sure the remains are those of Louis.

The undersigned would call the attention of
 those who
 Have not Sold their Tobacco to an arrangement which we have recently
 made for
 Purchasing or Packing and
 Selling on the following plan to wit: We will receive the tobacco at the warehouse, assort and pack it, procure insurance and storage, sample and sell it, with no expense to the owner until the crop is sold. Every crop to be Subject to the order of the owner should he choose at any time to remove or sell it. We will also after the crop is assorted make each man reasonable a- CASH OFFER for his tobacco should he wish to sell. We trust this is an opportunity which farmers will appreciate, for it puts them on an Even Footing with the Buyer. It must also be apparent to any who have had experience that our facilities for selling through MT Soules extensive acquaintance with the largest dealers of the country will
 give us a
 Great Advantage over the individual farmer, as we can also do all the work, including our commission, with much less expense on each crop than if the grower should pack and sell it himself. We shall begin packing about February 18th. For full particulars, cost of packing, selling, etc., call on or address

Successful knights.

Norwich, Conn, June S--The Knights Of
Labor and the Democrats elected seven out
of twelve officers voted for in the city cleo
tion yesterday, including one alderman, four
councilmen, city treasurer and one sheriff,
The Republicans saved out of the wreck an
alderman, the clerk of the common council,
city collector, one sheriff and the water COM
missoners The Knights of Labor fired
salutes and paraded the streets with brass
band thus revealing their identity to the
public Heretofore they have existed sub
rosa, although they elected state senator
from this district last fall, defeating ex-
Mayor Osgood. This result is partly at
tributed by the Democrats to the action of
Che Republican caucus last Friday evening,
ex-Mayor Osgood presiding, in excluding
Irish Republicans, on the ground that they
were not Republican voters. The joint city
government is now evenly divided, the
knights of Labor and the Democrats hold
ing six votes and the Republicans six,
Mayor Carpenter, Republican, having the
decisive vote. The Knights of Labor al
lege that they can control one Republican
alderman, thus giving them a majority on a

German Gen eral Drowned.

PARIS June S.-The Journal du Havre In
an article upon the recent Champagne disas-
tar, says that all unclaimed baggage was
brought to Havre Among this unclaimed
baggage were few valises and two or three
trunks. These have just been opened for the
purpose of tracing their owners In one Of
the trunks a singular discovery was made.
On the trunk was the name of German
staff officer. In the trunk cards bearing the
name and rank were found. There were also
In his trunk very accurate and complete
sketches Of various forts and protected
places in France, which were clearly the
work of spy. There were other papers in
the trunk which clearly established the idsn.
ity of the officer in question, who, it is now
believed, was lost during the disaster.

New YORK, June IA special to the
Tribune from Albany alleges that the gov
ernor's motto for dealing with the United
Labor party is to ''divide and conquer" and
that he will seek to sow seeds of dissensions
in its ranks. For this purpose, it is alleged
porters to boom the Union Labor party as
much as possible. This is an entirely differ
ent party from the United Labor or Henry
George party, and its methods and aims are
different. Its state convention is to be held
at Elmira, where the governor has hosts Of
friends. The plan is to hold the convention
on the same day that the United Labor
people hold theirs, and try to cause bolt
from the Henry George party.
